A Garden Adventure in Seed Starting, Wine and Craft Beer
Join us for our fifth event in our outdoor classroom with this unique learning and tasting experience focussing on teaching you a foundational food-growing skill: seed sowing.
This creative interactive workshop is a guided exploration of starting your own edible garden from seed while you sip on featured wines and craft beer and savor a selection artisanal cheeses, dried fruit and nuts. You’ll leave this event with your very own sustainable seeded tray to nurture your future food garden at home. You’ll have your choice of a wide selection of warm season herbs and veggie seeds with which to create the start of your dream garden.
No experience needed, all curious humans welcomed as our fearless leader, master gardener, culinary grower and owner of The Cook’s Garden, Geri Miller, guides you through a series of “learning-by-doing” exercises to expand your food growing skills. You will embrace the magic of this workshop - seed in one hand, glass of wine in the other - as we take you on a journey that will feed all your senses!
